The Running Press Dalek Is Ready To Exterminate!

I recently picked purchased the Running Press Dalek Mega Mini Kit and it's really cool! Running Press has produced numerous pop culture inspired mini kits including the cool Bat Signal I posted a while back. As a Dalek fanatic; this little gem makes me very happy. It's based on the bronze war era Dalek that made its first appearance in the 2005 episode aptly titled Dalek. It has been a fixture of the current Doctor Who episodes since that time. Even the addition of the New Paradigm Daleks didn't completely eliminate the bronze Daleks from the series. I happen to like the design quite a bit.
Running Press has done a great job with the figure. Very sturdy. Nice details and paint. The weapon and manipulator arms are poseable as is the head and eye stalk. There are wheels on the underside so you can roll it about. All in all, Running Press did a smashing job. Like the Bat Signal before it; the Dalek came with 32 page color booklet that's very cool. Check out the photos. Enjoy!
